i jsut wanna say that i hate that about shounen manga HAHAH. it’s repetitive and tiring and bnha is steering towards that. im mostly sticking for the characters ive grown to love immensely. but the plot is just… meh.

Yeah I totally agree with everything you said!! It tries to deconstruct some of the conventional shounen tropes but it doesn’t do it in a way that feels productive anymore? Like things are realistic but to the point that it hinders the story. Izuku can’t develop because he just keeps destroying his body and bodies have to have limits, for example.

And the tone just keeps descending into this super dark sad place that I just find exhausting. In a way it reminds me of HunterxHunter where it’s losing its fun and spunk due to the need to keep raising the stakes.

I love all the kids of 1A but I’d rather see random slice of life comics about them than whatever the plot is :T

Connor is the most generic character but out of the three he’s the most fun? He has like a personality which is ironic cause he’s the like…Most Robotic Of them all. Markus story timing is weirdly paced and like why would anyone believe he’s just instantly ready to be a leader??? And Kara’s story is just desperately trying not to DIE

Connor’s definitely like. The most trope-y? There’s nothing super unique about his story but I think because he has the most choices, he has the most room to grow so you can track his character narrative very easily. It’s simple but it’s heartwarming.

Markus like. There’s very little that connects his introduction with the rest of his story and he just magically becomes the voice of all the androids and it makes no sense at all. I saw a post referring to him as Android Jesus and I’m inclined to agree with it. Also that North romance? Ugh. Straight people.

And Kara. Poor lovely Kara. I wanted to like her a lot but her story is I think the most laden with the absolutely terrible allegory and it’s just so frustrating to watch. She never really feels like a hero in her own story, not like Connor and Markus get to, and of course she gets relegated to the “you just wanted to be a mother!” role. Thanks David Cage.

i’ve heard it’s gone massively downhill and from the couple of times i went a few years ago i have to say that’s the case

I was considering stopping in for a day now that they’re in DC proper and not Baltimore but like?? It costs 100 dollars to get in the door and they have some bullshit justification for it being a “membership to Otakorp” instead of just a ticket into the event and I’m just like...did being in the DMV area go to their heads because they’ve got all this crap about Otakorp being an “educational nonprofit” and stuff and I’m like. You’re an anime convention. Just accept that you’re an anime convention.

They have a lot of industry stuff going on which I guess is interesting because it just seems like they’re very full of themselves....
